50 Cent was on the news in an interview and they asked him if he thought he was promoting gang violence in his music.
He said no, your glamorizing it if you never went through it. But for me, don?t art imitate life?
So Lupe ranting on twitter about that comment.

| Lupe Fiasco ?@LupeFiasco 1h If you rap and make violent music then own up to it. Stop hiding behind ?art imitating life? as a way to evade the guilt. |

| Lupe Fiasco ?@LupeFiasco 1h Ive made violent music. Done violent things. Most my friends are violent. Lived in violent neighbors. Seen violence first hand. |
Quote:
| Lupe Fiasco ?@LupeFiasco 1h A certain point you start to get tired of it. You ask why? why is it like this? what is causing this? why is this ok to live like this? |

| Lupe Fiasco ?@LupeFiasco 1h but dont sit there and act like high *** inner city murder rates are just falling from the sky for absolutely no reason? |

I know you don?t hear me. I guess its the LAST desperate act of a desperate man in desperate times. On one?peace?
Lupe is saying what no rap media outlets or rappers want to say. Why hasn?t any rap magazine or website ever talked about the effects of hip hop on today?s youth and society. Older pioneers like Chuck D won?t talk about it cause they need a check. No one with a significant voice will step up and risk being blackballed from the industry.
Thoughts?
